Israel's Political Deadlock: Eisenkot Seeks Coalition Amid Netanyahu's Unity Call
Following Israel's October 27 elections, no party secured a majority, leading President Isaac Herzog to task Gadi Eisenkot with forming a government. Eisenkot's bloc, supported by Arab parties Ra'am and the Joint List, holds a parliamentary majority but faces challenges in coalition-building. He aims to reverse Netanyahu-era policies, including judicial reforms, and launch an inquiry into the October 7 Hamas attacks. Meanwhile, caretaker Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu calls for a national unity government, rejecting coalitions involving Arab parties and emphasizing security concerns amid ongoing political tensions.
